Abstract

Exercise produce waste products induce muscle atrophy and may lead to fatigue. Blood and lymphatic vessels together form the circulatory system, allowing the passage of fluids and molecules within the body. The formed waste products and ions are transported via initial lymphatic capillaries to collecting vessels, to lymph nodes, and finally back to the blood. Ions accumulations lead to depolarization of cell membranes causing cell dysfunction.  Accordingly, we investigated the role of lymph in waste products and ions clearance in cell function integrity. Eight physically active, non athletic females from the physical rehabilitation unit in the National Heart Institute, Giza, volunteered to participate in physical program (1hr. daily)/3days/12 weeks. Blood was taken before and immediately following exercise tests before and after the program and analyzed for serum ions (Na & K) using ion selective electrode. Lactate/pyruvate (La/P) ratio was assessed by using commercial photometric kits. There were no significant (P< 0.05) differences in ions levels either before and after training exercise or after compared to before program. La/P was highly maintained around optimum ratio after exercise after program in relation to before program. Regular training program increased lymph function and regulation of waste product clearance with improved cellular integrity.
